In this paper we propose a novel computational method to infer visual saliency in images. The method is based on the idea that salient objects should have local characteristics tha...
Many previous studies have investigated gender classification in well-lit frontal images. In this paper we consider images where the pose, expression and lighting are relatively u...
Abstract—We propose a strategy to perform query processing on P2P similarity search systems based on peers and superpeers. We show that by approximating global but resumed inform...
A concurrent object is an object that can be concurrently accessed by several processes. Sequential consistency is a consistency criterion for such objects. Informally, it states ...
Combining information extraction systems yields significantly higher quality resources than each system in isolation. In this paper, we generalize such a mixing of sources and fea...
